Terms of Reference

At its Session held in November 2016, the UNECE Executive Committee (ExCom) decided to transform the Team of Specialists on Public-Private Partnerships (TOS PPP) into a Working Party on Public-Private Partnerships (WP PPP).

In recognition of the new focus on the elaboration of people-first PPP standards for the UN SDGs, the member States have agreed to upgrade the intergovernmental structure to a Working Party on Public-Private Partnerships with the involvement of all UN Member States and other key stakeholders, including representatives from international organisations, civil society and the private sector.

The terms of reference are contained in document ECE/CECI/2016/6, Annex, to replace the Team of Specialists on Public-Private Partnerships as of its first session hold in 2017.
